I love me some Weyes Blood! I got on board with Front Row Seat To Earth, and I vacillate between that and Titanic Rising for my favorite album. Not that the new one isn't great, too. I was lucky enough to see her in 2019 in a small club in Fresno, CA.

I must like this song because I just spent half an hour working it out and scrounging for that ♭VI chord in the chorus.

The song is so light and the words are so heavy. Peace and Love to all who struggle with THE WEIGHT.

Thank you for this share. I liked the way the video was cut and the song was lovely too.

Thanks for turning me on to this album! The music and her voice have a heavy, soothing quality that is lovely, even while the lyrics hold a lot of weight.
